The Best Of 2020. Top50. 41 - 50

Sounds fun but the music reviewers are the only persons whose activities weren’t spoiled by the covid19 pandemic. All other parties of the business were affected: musicians, clubs, festivals, promoters, labels, record stores etc. – everyone but reviewers. Nevertheless, my own activities were affected by my laptop’s hard disk crash that ruined the list of 400 albums I had listened to up to that moment (along with my whole iTunes collection). Moreover, I was totally crashed by the untimely passing of my best friend due to post-covid19 complications. That fact derailed me and switched me off the process to the point where I wanted to stop doing it this year. But at the end of the day the music appeared to be the best cure, the best painkiller, the best kind of helper to cope with the loss.

I think, the list you are about to find below - well, one fifth of the list - in no way is the list of anything 'best'. This is the list of impressions. I only hope this music will find its way to impress you as much as it impressed me.

50. Nestor Mir "Un Immens I Infinit Continent" (p)Malatesta 

The best choice for those who, like me, have found the latest Pau Vallve's effort a bit too slow and/or sleepy. 

BNDCMP 

49. El Columpio Asesino "Ataque Celeste" (p)Oso Polita 

The Basque electro/post punks get warmer and mellower on their sixth LP.

SPTF

48. Cementeri "Asma, Corte, Afonia, Pisoton" (p)Nooirax/ Spinda/ The Braves 

For me, it seems like this music has its roots in Motorhead - but these roots, before reaching the surface of the ground, apparently came through the Betunizer-filled soils.

BNDCMP 

47. Gessamí Boada "On Començo Jo" (p)Segell Microscopi 

It’s so beautiful that my rock-oriented soul can't stand falling in love with it. 

SPTF 

46. Lluis Paloma, 'Patinet' "Els Somnis Del Futur S'Escriuran Amb Acer!" (p)El Mamut Traçut 

I don't know what it is. I pushed play button to taste it and then just found myself in the end of the last track. But I don't know how to describe it, and what to say more than "It's music".

BNDCMP 

45. Kohatu "Oskolak" (p)self-released 

The metal factory of Basque Country never stops. Berri Txarrak may leave the stage for good but they've got some great heirs in there.

SPTF 

44. Somos La Herencia "Dolo" (p)Humo Intl. 

As uncategorizable as the most part of Humo Intl. releases are, this goth/electro/art/punk music is strange, gutwrenching and evocative. And a bit frightening at times. 

BNDCMP 

43. Pinpilinpussies "Fuerza 3" (p)Aloud Music 

Read this.

BNDCMP 

42. Diego Hdez "Paisajes Confinados" (p)Discos Delejos/ Foehn 

Read this.

BNDCMP 

41. Gyoza "Early Bird" (p)The Braves Records
